Blur xc from Colorado cyclist

Real happy with mine so far

I've had my 2006 Blur XC now for a few months and have been very happy with it. After this summer and a season of racing, I'll post a review. So far, I like the handling and comfort. It's pretty light for a FS too.

Not so good service

I ordered a Blur LT from them. They sent the bike with the wrong parts/ poorly built. If you order triple check parts spec. (even though that is what I did) Good luck! I wouldnt order from them again. Just my opinion. For what I spent I expected better Customer Service.

Go somewhere else

Their service is BAD! They built my bike wrong and with wrong components, took way too long and way too many phone calls to them to get them to do anything and eventually I was told thats all we are going to do. Unsatisfactory. I will not give them any business again for this reason. Even if it costs more now go somewhere else, you will save more in the end. My 2 cents.

custom or build kit?

Thanks for the info!
Did you order a custom bike or a frame and a build kit?
The bike comes out about 600$ cheeper, and I like their build kit so I'm still considering it.

Frame only. w/ free fork . I had no problem. If they have it in stock that would be wise .Ordering frames from SC is rough. Long wait. Especially for a build kit.
Just be up front w/ them. Express concern and ask when it will ship.

CC support

I bought a classic Blur from CC last spring -- good deal on the set-up overall and CC even threw in several unexpected equip upgrades for free (05 Fox RP3!)... Assembly was spot on, and I couldn't be happier with their customer service. I've done lots of business with them over the years, and have nothing but good things to say; they've always treated me well...

Being military, I don't always have access to an LBS, so sometimes mail-order is my only option. CO Cycles is the best, IMHO...
